Purchasing and readiness checklist
Confirm the manufacturer, model, regulatory documentation, included battery and pads, pad expiry date, paediatric capability, carrying case, warranty and service support. Also confirm local requirements for installation, inspection, training and replacement consumables. Do not assume accessories or paediatric capability are included unless specified in the quotation.
Use and maintenance
Follow the device prompts and the manufacturer’s instructions. AED use should form part of an emergency response plan with appropriate responder training and prompt activation of emergency medical services. Check the readiness indicator, battery and electrode-pad expiry dates according to the manufacturer’s schedule.
